Does anyone have recent information on how much traffic being on the HN frontpage gets you? Would be helpful to know.

  15-20k but can be easy solved with CloudFlare full page cache rule

    Likely possible to handle HN load just fine... if the page was static. edit: page loaded. It's apparently Microdot, a micro web framework running on micropython.

    Well yeah, anything is easy if your server isn't doing the work.

    My website runs on baling twine and duct tape (...and CloudFlare).
